I am curious what kinds of high frequency horn drivers are being used in either commercial or DIY horn systems. I am also curious, if you know, why that particular driver/horn combination was chosen.
For my Odeons it is a Beyma CP350Ti and I think either a spherical or round Tractrix horn. Looking into this driver I found that it has a good frequency response and very low distortion compared to most other 1 inch drivers where distortion data is available.
I have bought a second, used pair (they are only available used now) along with an 18 sound contstant directivity waveguide to take over the highs on my Decware HDT system.
The 1 inch CDs I have heard with plastic diaphragms has left me not too pleased and it seems an Al or Ti or Be diaphragm has a more realistic sound...
Thoughts from the horn guys out there?
